How The India-Pakistan Air Battle Panned Out Post-Balakot
After initially denying that it had used F-16 aircraft in the dogfight with the Indian Air Force on February 27, a day after India struck a terror camp in Balakot, Pakistan now has obliquely acknowledged that it used the U.S.-made fighter. So what exactly happened during the air battle that lasted less than seven minutes? In this exclusive chat with SNI's Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale, Air Marshal SBP Sinha, a fighter pilot who retired from service on December 31 last year as the Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Central Air Command, details the sequence of events and how he feels the Pakistani Air Force that deployed nearly 24 aircraft for the misadventure goofed up big time, displaying lack of professional training. #India #Pakistan #dogfight
